the sun always rises. spring always returns.

the long grass
is golden still
the branches are barren
but lovely still

winter's wind swept
the thunder of summer
into my journal
and slammed it closed

the glory of fall
it banished
to my paintings
and photographs

it's cold
but life remains
resting in those tree trunks
dancing in my
baby sister's eyes

winter may have it's moment
but I know a man
with Springtime in his blood
